Scrum
Scrum is an agile project management framework used primarily for software development, emphasizing iterative progress, team collaboration, and adaptability to changing requirements. It organizes work into time-boxed iterations called sprints, typically lasting 2-4 weeks, with roles like Product Owner, Scrum Master, and Development Team. The framework includes ceremonies such as sprint planning, daily stand-ups, sprint reviews, and retrospectives to ensure continuous improvement and delivery of value.
Developers should learn Scrum to work effectively in modern software teams that prioritize flexibility, customer feedback, and rapid delivery, as it helps manage complex projects by breaking them into manageable chunks. It is particularly useful in environments with evolving requirements, cross-functional teams, and a focus on delivering working software incrementally. Knowledge of Scrum is often required for roles in agile organizations and enhances collaboration, transparency, and productivity.
